Ok. Usually I would not be attending a circus. I have mixed feelings about the caged, traveling

animal situation, but my Son really wanted to go. So, what is a Mom to do when looking into the pouty face of a youngster? Off we went to the Circus. I have to say it was fun. The acts were amazing and it was great for all ages. I was a little worried for the Lion Tamer. The tigers did not look happy to see him. Actually I was sure that one of the tigers was about to eat him (or at least was thinking about it). Even some of the female lions snap at him and tried to claw him. Scary stuff! Well, I guess you take that chance when you enroll in lion tamer school.
All and all it was a nice family outing filled with elephants and junk food!

I made this lovely quiche last night for dinner. It is rather easy to make and is pretty tasty. I have made it a couple of times now, in various forms. I will post the Vegetarian version, but it can be made for the meat eater too. Not only have I gotten a few compliments regarding this dish, my very picky Son gobbles it right up! Enjoy!

Quiche me baby
